After hearing the girl's words from the room, Xu Huanzhi's mother tried to persuade him a few more words, but seeing that the girl insisted on refusing to come out for dinner, she didn't say anything more.

After returning to the dinner table, Xu Huanzhi's father saw that the old woman did not bring the girl out, and the smile on his face faded a bit.

He turned his gaze to the old woman, as if asking why she didn't bring the girl out.

Xu Huanzhi's mother glanced at him, shook her head imperceptibly, and sat back in her seat.

Seeing this scene, Xu Huanzhi's father sighed softly.

The reason why the old couple were willing to take in Zhou Yuexi temporarily was because they felt that it was not safe for her to stay outside with a girl.

On the other hand, I also moved my mind to lead the way for my son.

Qu Qingfeng, who had been silent all this time, noticed something strange about the old couple.

He didn't say much at the moment, he was still talking and laughing happily with Xu Huanzhi and the others, but the movements of his hands were slightly sped up.

After drinking and eating, Xu Huanzhi was going to take the Taoist priest to take a good look around this small village where he had stayed for more than 20 or [-] years.

But the two of them just got up when Xu Huanzhi's father stopped them.

"Huanzhi, there is no wine at home, you can buy two bottles from your aunt Wang."

Hearing what his father said, the young man couldn't help showing a puzzled expression on his face.

He clearly remembered that there were still a few bottles of good wine in his house that had been stored for many years, and this time he had informed his parents early in the morning. This kind of thing should have been bought long ago. Why did his father still say that there was no wine in the house?

Besides, even if there is no wine, there is a canteen not far from home, just go there and buy two bottles.

Why do you have to go to Aunt Wang?
Although Aunt Wang opened a winery in the east of the village, more than half of the wine there is fake wine.

Almost no one in the village would go there to buy.

What's more, my home is in the west of the village, and there is no need to go to the east of the village to buy a bottle of fake wine from Aunt Wang.

"Dad, I remember that at home, it seemed..."

Before Xu Huanzhi could finish his words, the expression on his father's face, which was originally blissful, suddenly changed.

His father straightened his face, his eyes were wide/round, and he glared at the young man and said.

"If you are told to go, go, where is there so much nonsense!"

Being scolded by his father like this, the young man didn't dare to speak anymore.

After being a son for so many years, he knows too well what kind of temper his father has.

Although his father's anger is somewhat inexplicable now, Xu Huanzhi knows that if he really dares to speak back again, he will inevitably be beaten by his father.

Even if there is still an outsider like Taoist priest, even if the young man has grown up now.

"Understood, Dad, I'll go later."

"Wait for nothing, let me go now!"

Hearing the young man's reply, the old man seemed to be even more angry, and the volume of his speech increased a little unconsciously.

If it weren't for Qu Qingfeng being here now, I'm afraid he would have already kicked him.

When the young man saw his father like this, he didn't say anything more.

Shrinking his neck, he apologized to Qu Qingfeng, and hurried out the door.

After Xu Huanzhi walked away, the old man's face changed into an amiable smile as if by magic.

"I'm sorry, Daoist, this child has been like this since he was a child, and it made you laugh."

When Qu Qingfeng heard Xu Huanzhi's father's address, he was slightly surprised, and then he was relieved.

Xu Huanzhi must have told his parents what happened yesterday in advance, so it is not very strange that the old couple can know Qu Qingfeng's identity as a Taoist priest.

But this time Qu Qingfeng guessed wrong.

The reason why Xu Huanzhi's father knew his identity as a Taoist priest was not because Xu Huanzhi told him.

As early as when the old couple took in Zhou Yuexi, they had already asked the girl why she ran to this wild place by herself.

After learning her purpose from the girl, plus what Xu Huanzhi told them yesterday.

It was not difficult for the old couple to guess Qu Qingfeng's identity as a Taoist priest.

Although Xu Huanzhi never told his parents about the unclean things, the old couple can also get some information about his recent situation from his friends.

For this matter, I also understand a general idea.

"Master Dao, this way please."

After being polite with Qu Qingfeng, Xu Huanzhi's father said to the boy mysteriously.

He led the boy into the main room and came to the room of the old couple.

As soon as they sat down, Xu Huanzhi's mother brought some drinks and meals one after another, and placed them on the table.

"Master Dao, we don't have any good things in this small place, I hope you don't dislike it."

Xu Huanzhi's father unscrewed the lid of the wine bottle, stood up and prepared to pour Qu Qingfeng a glass of wine.

Seeing this, the boy hurriedly picked up his wine glass and stood up.

After pouring the wine, Xu Huanzhi's father picked up the glass again and said.

"Master Dao, I respect you for this glass of wine, thank you for saving my son's life."

"It's a little effort, a little effort, the old gentleman doesn't have to be so polite."

The host and guest touched their wine glasses, then raised their heads and drank the wine in the glasses.

After drinking a glass of wine, the boy's face turned slightly rosy.

Xu Huanzhi's father also seemed to be a little drunk, with a worried look on his face.

An involuntary sigh came out of his mouth.

Hearing this sigh, the boy knew that he was about to get down to business.

From the moment Xu Huanzhi's father sent Xu Huanzhi away, the boy knew that the old couple had something to ask of him.

"Why does the old gentleman sigh?"

The young man followed suit and gave Xu Huanzhi's father a chance to tell what happened next.

"The child Huanzhi was actually picked up by my old lady and me."

Hearing this, the young man couldn't help but feel a little startled.

He knew before that the old couple deliberately took Xu Huanzhi away, there must be some secret, and they couldn't tell it in front of him.

He didn't expect that this secret would involve the young man's life experience.

"At first, we really thought about finding his biological parents, but we couldn't find them."

"So we also moved to adopt him as our son."

"After completing all the documents, we named him Huanzhi, which means the new life he brought us."

Speaking of this, a smile appeared on the old man's face.

As if recalling the joy of the past.

The old Xu's family was passed down through several generations, until the young man's father was born, but because of infertility, this honest rural couple had no offspring.

For this disease, they traveled all over the major hospitals and spent almost all their savings.

But still no improvement.

The day they picked up Xu Huanzhi was also the time when they were desperate and ready to give up.

Maybe God took pity on them and sent Xu Huanzhi to them when they were most desperate.
